A '''Wonder Card''' is sent together with a [[Mystery Gift]], and usually provides detail for the gift the player has received. Players who have three Wonder Cards already stored in their copy of Diamond or Pearl cannot receive a new one, and should choose to trash used Wonder Cards before receiving another Mystery Gift from Battle Revolution. Also, discarded cards cannot be retrieved.

A '''Wonder Card''' (Japanese: '''ふしぎなカード''' ''Wonder Card'') is a digital card used by the [[Mystery Gift]] system to track events that the player has received. They were introduced in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and were used in every [[core series]] game. Beginning in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Wonder Cards are no longer stored on the player's save file, as the player now receives the gift instantly. Instead, they serve as a timestamped receipt to show when a player has received a certain gift.


Gifts in which Wonder Cards are bundled with can be received from a deliveryman who waits in any [[Poké Mart]].
==Usage==
Wonder Cards in the {{player}}'s possession can be viewed through the card album feature of the [[Mystery Gift]] system. Wonder Cards mention the name of the gift, whether the player has already received the gift, a brief description of the gift, and, starting in [[Generation IV]], the date the Wonder Card was received in the game. An image of the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, [[item]], or other contents of the gift is also included.


Obtained Wonder Cards can be viewed by accessing Mystery Gift from Diamond or Pearl's main menu (if they have yet enabled Mystery Gift), and selecting the "Check Card" option. Wonder Cards contain such information as the name of the bundled gift, whether or not the player has already received the gift before, the date the gift was received in the game, and a brief description of the gift; an icon of the gift is also displayed for further identification (with the exception of TM gifts, which sport an empty icon placeholder).
In [[Generation]]s {{gen|III}} and {{gen|IV}}, each event distribution has unique Wonder Card text, which is stored in the card itself. From [[Generation V]] onwards, the distribution text serves this role, so the Wonder Card text is instead pulled from a fixed pool that describes where it was obtained; once the event has been collected, the Wonder Card text changes to indicate this.


==List of Wonder Card descriptions==
Some Wonder Cards may also be sent to other players, enabling a player with a Wonder Card to gift a copy of it to other players that do not have it.

WC redirects here. For the real-life competition, see World Championships.

A Wonder Card (Japanese: ふしぎなカード Wonder Card) is a digital card used by the Mystery Gift system to track events that the player has received. They were introduced in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and were used in every core series game. Beginning in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Wonder Cards are no longer stored on the player's save file, as the player now receives the gift instantly. Instead, they serve as a timestamped receipt to show when a player has received a certain gift.

Usage

Wonder Cards in the player's possession can be viewed through the card album feature of the Mystery Gift system. Wonder Cards mention the name of the gift, whether the player has already received the gift, a brief description of the gift, and, starting in Generation IV, the date the Wonder Card was received in the game. An image of the Pokémon, item, or other contents of the gift is also included.

In Generations III and IV, each event distribution has unique Wonder Card text, which is stored in the card itself. From Generation V onwards, the distribution text serves this role, so the Wonder Card text is instead pulled from a fixed pool that describes where it was obtained; once the event has been collected, the Wonder Card text changes to indicate this.

Some Wonder Cards may also be sent to other players, enabling a player with a Wonder Card to gift a copy of it to other players that do not have it.

Collection

The gifts provided by the Wonder Cards can be received from specific non-player characters.

Starting in Pokémon:Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, gift Pokémon are automatically placed in the player's party, and gift items are automatically placed in the player's bag when the Wonder Card is downloaded. If the player's party is full, the gift Pokémon will instead be placed in the first available spot in the Player's PC Box.

Maximum amount per game

Prior to Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Pokémon games can only store a limited number of Wonder Cards. If a player has too many Wonder Cards, they are unable to receive any new ones until they discard old ones. Discarded cards can never be retrieved and if a Wonder Card is deleted before the gift is received, the gift will be deleted as well. Collecting a gift does not cause a Wonder Card to be discarded, although it will be marked as used.
